The Mexican government has engaged an American gun-control organization, Global Action on Gun Violence, with a $300,000 contract to lobby U.S. officials, pursue firearm lawsuits, and train Mexican officials in U.S. gun policy. Their aim is to promote gun control in the United States.
Global Action on Gun Violence has ties to Democratic lawmakers and aims to influence U.S. gun laws.
The organization has worked on projects related to gun trafficking and has featured Democratic representatives in its communications.
Their contract with Mexico outlines strategies to target U.S. government officials and raise awareness regarding gun policy.
The group supports legislation like Sen. Dick Durbin's Stop Arming Cartels Act, which seeks to regulate the sale of large-caliber firearms and limit gun industry liability.
Global Action on Gun Violence has openly stated its intention to challenge Supreme Court rulings that protect gun rights, specifically advocating for the overturning of cases like District of Columbia v. Heller.
Despite setbacks like the Supreme Court's dismissal of Mexico's lawsuit against gun manufacturers, the group continues its lobbying efforts and public campaigns.
The collaboration between the Mexican government and an American advocacy group highlights international efforts to influence U.S. gun policy. The organization aims to leverage political connections and legal action to foster stricter gun control in America, alongside its ongoing campaigns against existing Second Amendment protections.
